How To Choose a Family Law Attorney in Arizona

When choosing an attorney, there may be only one factor that comes to mind: price. It’s not a news flash that obtaining legal representation can be a costly endeavor. But like all other things in life, you often get what you pay for. 

Whether your concern is a divorce, a child custody battle, child support payments or alimony payments, choosing an Arizona attorney that specializes in family law simply based on paying a low price can backfire.  

In fact, if an Arizona family law attorney promises a set fee over the phone before even meeting with you, be skeptical. Many areas of family law are highly complex and subject to unforeseen procedural changes. That attorney’s “guaranteed price” could be nothing more than an attempt to pull clients through the door. 

Furthermore, an independent attorney may promise a low hourly rate; however, the attorney could pad your billable hours because they don’t work with a law firm with access to skilled paralegals. That means that the independent attorney will have to do all the work and charge you more for their time. 

Many of the most experienced and skilled family law attorneys in Arizona will offer a consultation to assess how complex your case will be and give you the best possible estimate of the legal fees involved. 

In addition to being transparent about the costs involved in handling your family law case, the best family attorneys in Arizona are also transparent about how much experience they have in the field of family law that pertains to your case. 

While different fields of law can cross over into the territory of family law, say, in the case of a child-custody dispute involving a parent that’s on parole (criminal law), you should hire an attorney with solid experience in family law matters.

Online reviews are also excellent for choosing a solid family law attorney in Arizona. Similar to choosing a restaurant or vacation accommodation, reading reviews can provide you with confidence based on the real experiences of others. 

If the attorney or law firm does not have reviews, it doesn’t necessarily mean the attorneys within the firm are incompetent, inexperienced or uncaring. But it’s definitely worth asking the potential attorney or firm representative why you can’t find any family law reviews on their website.

How you are treated in your initial consultation also matters greatly. You are going to spend significant time, money and energy working with your lawyer. In light of this, it would benefit you to select an Arizona family law attorney that resonates with you and shows genuine concern for your outcome. 

Being upfront about costs, having extensive experience in family law, having a good reputation and being compassionate are qualities that the best family law attorneys in Arizona possess.
